Green Day

Spring is here and it’s time to start thinking about planting stuff outside. Whether it’s a vegetable garden, a new tree in the yard or tending to the flower box in the window nothing says spring like live plants.

It’s also almost time for the NBA playoffs and while we’re talking about things that are green…how about them Celtics? Way better than the Nicks right? Take that @AJV! I had to bust AJ Vaynerchuk‘s chops a little bit because he kind of dissed Boston in a video at SXSW. Now he wasn’t too inflammatory but still come on…this is our house. :)

Huh…That IS cool

I also spent a little time reflecting on a little “huh” moment I had today. It’s always weird when you notice something special about your own product that you hadn’t really paid much attention to before. When was the last time someone replied to a Twitter post of yours that was more than a day old? Probably never right?

Well, on Tweetworks it’s not uncommon for a great thread that was started over a month ago to continue to have life. This is because popular threads tend to stay at the top in a group. People come to the group see something cool and jump in. Since we keep the thread with the most recent activity on top some conversations just keep on going. Like this one by Amy Langford in the Movies where she asks “What’s your stick movie?

“Hello World” Mike Langford has got a fever for a Tweetworks iPhone application and the only prescription is more cowbell. Wait…that can’t be right. Actually, he’s decided to get a move on with an iPhone app. Yes, seeing one created by the outside development community would be great but we’ve had so many requests that it’s time to get the ball rolling.

Featured Groups:

  1. AmericanHistoryBuffs (created by @DarrinDickey) – Can’t get enough of the History Channel? Was watching John Adams on HBO a religious experience for you? This is the place for you.
  2. DIY-Bathrooms, DIY-Electrical, DIY-Home-Repair, DIY-HVAC, DIY-Kitchens, DIY-Landscaping, DIY-Plumbing (created by @rons) – The call went out for “How To” groups in episode 24 and @rons answered the call. Before tackling your next do it yourself (DIY) home project check in with the appropriate Tweetworks group.
  3. WhatsUpBelgium (created by @damienvanachter) – What’s going on in Belgium now! If you are from Belgium, live in Belgium or just like the waffles this seems like a pretty cool place to hang out.
